Campground has good Level sites, Price is pretty cheap for this area (30 $ with hooks, 20 $ for dry on the boat parking lot). Restrooms could be better (the shower didn't allowed me to adjust the temperature, is was like liquid fire).

It was a stop over for one night while returning home. The ladies at check in were very nice and welcoming. Long pull trough site allowed us to stay hooked up. The utilities were well placed. Sites offer fairly good privacy with hedges. This park is desert view as is in it's name, so don't expect to walk to the river. My navigation, didn't do a good job of finding it, so look for the signs they have placed on the roads. It is next to the KOA if that helps. I'd come here again.

Great spot right out side of town

Great spot to get away quiet every park with plenty of amenities

We love it when parks have a plan for traveling campers like us who hate making reservations, and Lake Havasu came through in spades. They have a whole section of their campground dedicated to folks like us. We pulled up, grabbed a space, and spent the night right by the lakeshore.
I’m afraid we didn’t take pictures of the parking area as we were so taken with the view! It’s a huge parking lot with dedicated camping spaces, with picnic tables, trash cans and plenty of space between your neighbors. The bathrooms offer flush toilets, sinks and warm showers.
The RV dump tanks were close by, as is the vast boat launch area. While the overnight area might be a little more spartan, the rest of the park is gorgeous with looping campsite areas, rentable cabins, and winding paths.
Yet, it’s still within the town limits, so everything you might need, or want, is a short walk, bike ride, or drive away. You can even catch the ferry to the casinos across the lake if you want to lose your spending money.
Hiking, biking and paddling opportunities could all be reached from the campsite. Each site along the beach had some trees for shade, but all the sunshine you could want for solar power as well. We’ll keep this place in mind when we want a quick overnight with some shower access close to town.

Last minute reservation traveling from Yosemite-Tule Lake. Easy access off 40. Carla was very accommodating offering one of the 2 shaded lots available for our dogs sake as it was 92. Very Clean & quiet.
LegendWe arrived with no issues, though our RV GPS wanted to take us to the main ranger station about 4 miles before the campground(CG). Waze took us right to the CG. We arrived 30 minutes after their 2:00 PM check-in time, and the little ranger station was closed, so we proceeded to water and electric(50/30/20 AMP) site 23 and had no problem backing into this site. The utilities are centered on the pad, which was nice, and the water pressure was about 40 psi. One of the first things we noticed about this CG was how clean it was when we saw camp hosts cleaning sites and manicuring the gravel around them. The sites here are decently spaced. Site 23 was long enough for our 40’ 5th wheel with space to park our F450 off to the side of the asphalt pad. There was also a jumbo-sized picnic table and a stand-up barbecue. The Verizon signal was iffy, sometimes getting 1 bar depending on where you are in the CG. They have Wifi at the ranger station, which was okay. There are shade trees here and there throughout the CG, but we had no problem getting a clear shot of the northern sky for Starlink. This state park has a nice-sized agility dog park in which they have grass and keep it watered. Suggest you arrive before 3:00 PM as the office closes early. Parker about 20 minutes away has your major amenities such as Walmart. Lake Havasu City has some tourist attractions worth checking out, such as the London Bridge. You cannot beat the mountain views, and we wished we’d stayed longer than just four days.

Nice for an overnight stop but we stayed about a week. Narrow sites for big rig parking but they were long enough. Our site sloped forward but we managed. No gravel, dirt; it is the desert. Pleasant staff. A whole lot of birds in the bushes and trees chirping as the sun came up.
TravelerWe stayed for two nights, arrived late and left early. Great for an overnight hookup. Spacious parking and environment. Had a nice walk to Walmart (1.2 miles each way) but they do have a shop on sight. Your standard KOA experience would stay again. Clean showers and toilets.
TravelerVery clean and well maintained state park on the river. Our site backed up to the river and was close to the bathroom and showers. Only downside, for me, was no T-Mobile cell service or WiFi. Had to walk to the office to get WiFi.
LegendNice location to be near town. Lots of gravel but good size spots. Boat launch, garden, cabins and beaches.
ScoutPark Management is no longer allowing anyone without a self contained vehicle to use the dump station.
GuideSpent 4 days here last month and going back next week. Great place to stay during the off season when not crowded. There are 8 spaces with a river view but only have water and electric. Used the park showers to keep from filling our black tank. I do recommend this place.
Traveler
Nice level site under eucalyptus trees. The pool was refreshing, the showers and bathrooms clean, friendly staff. Enjoyed a few games of pool in the air conditioned activities center, lots of books and movies to borrow. We'll be back next time through.

This was a nice cool area for end of a June. We had no problem in our lifted Tacoma but would suggest good clearance. We ended up camping along the road instead of the campground at the end because we are cheap. Bear scat in the area. Beautiful area too.
GuideWe stopped here on the way home as a 1 nighter.we stayed 3 days.ican see in summer or holiday weekends it could be a crazy busy place. We had a site right on the water and was mostly quiet. We were here mid-week in early may. So much fun. We rented PWCs just down river and parked them on the beach 20ft from our rv. The sites on the water are all dry sites and fcfs. Full hookups on the hill. Awesome views
Travelerthe place is nice with hilly scenery and next to the highway. there’s a truck stop 5 min away so can offer clean toilet, food, shower, or gas if needed. would have loved to stay here but the place was littered with resident campers the whole way. we had to find another place because it was getting dark.
RangerVery cute place. Sites have cement patios, there are colorful bushes that separate the sites. Fit our 42’ 5th wheel perfect. Nice pool and very clean and friendly park.
ScoutA wide variety of birds here chirping nicely it's very pleasant and interesting.
ScoutThis is a nice little campground where everybody seems to be very friendly. There's a nice activities room, laundry room and swimming pool. Most of the people here are snowbirds and they come back every year. This place is nice and close to Laughlin Nevada, Oatman and Bullhead City and yet it is still out in the country.
GuideEvery spot has its own bushes and trees making it a more private and shaded experience in the mirror the desert.
ScoutSpent 4 days. The park is really nice. Verizon service was spotty at best, not reliable. Others said their service with AT&T and T-Mobile were the same.
RangerArrived without reservations and was able to stay in the non hookup overflow parking for $20/night. Excellent so far, close to the lake and showers, level, paved, and quiet.
LegendWe arrived after park hosting in Oregon for 4 months. Blue sky, sift breeze and 72 degrees greeted us. Carla at the desk is awesome. We had to reschedule our visit due to mechanical issues. She was very helpful. Mountains to the NE of us. They have a pool, cleaned regularly but not heated. I’m too much of a wimp for polar plunges. But my wife Sherri says she’ll go it later.
GuideThe pool looks nice but it’s been too cold to check it out. I am not used to the desert so it’s hard for me to like this area. However the sites are flat and gravel and there is a decent laundry room. The bath house is dated but serviceable. For some reason my spot didn’t have a picnic table but it’s too windy to use anyways.
GuideRiver Island State Park was full when we checked in and they offered us overflow camping instead until a hook up site became available. Very affordable at only $20 a night with a noon checkout time. Very clean Park with flush restrooms,showers,dump stations,fresh potable water places around the park. Hiking trail overlooking Park and beach area for swimming and fishing. Gas station/ convenient store half mile up road,with free air and grill (burgers,pizza). Prices were amazing!
